MenuGPT.net FAQ

What is it?

MenuGpt.net a public webpage that provides a conversation with an AI. Unlike other chatbots, there is no freeform text entry. Instead, input choices are generated by the AI, and selected by the user. It's like a choose-your-own-adventure, for AI-chat. Each input and AI response gets a permanent and public web page. The pages are linked together by parent-child relationships. The result is a tree-shaped graph of pages.

Why does this exist?
